The Saddleback Clownfish, also known as Amphiprion polymnus, is a stunning and popular saltwater fish species that originates from the Indo-Pacific region. It is highly sought after by both beginner and experienced aquarists due to its vibrant colors and unique markings.
 
Saddleback Clownfish have an average size of 3 to 4 inches, with females being slightly larger than males. They are known for their distinctive black saddle-like marking on their back, which gives them their name. Their body is predominantly orange, with a white belly and beautiful fins.
 
These clownfish are generally peaceful and can be kept in pairs or small groups. They require a tank size of at least 20 gallons with plenty of live rock and hiding spots to create a suitable habitat. The tank should also have a well-established and stable saltwater environment.
 
The Saddleback Clownfish is relatively easy to care for, making it suitable for aquarists of various skill levels. They are omnivorous and will readily accept a diet of high-quality pellet or flake food, supplemented with occasional offerings of frozen or live foods.
